I'm going to be upgrading my desktop PC and have a question about RAID. I
currently have a RAID-1 using two SATA drives on a 3ware 8006-2
controller. I'm going to be upgrading to an Intel Motherboard using the
945 chipset that features the Intel Matrix RAID built in.
Does anyone have a comparison between these two? Should I stick with the
3ware card, or will I get better performance with the new motherboard
RAID?
Thanks!
